Question

which answer best explains how to get from the origin to point e on the coordinate grid? left 6 units, down 4 units left 4 units, down 6 units right 4 units, up 6 units right 6 units, up 4 units

Explanation:

Step1: Identify x - coordinate movement

The origin is at \((0,0)\). Point \(E\) is at \(x = 6\) (since we move right from \(x = 0\) to \(x=6\)) and \(y = 4\) (move up from \(y = 0\) to \(y = 4\)). So we move right 6 units (along x - axis, positive direction) and up 4 units (along y - axis, positive direction).

Step2: Match with options

Check each option:

• Option 1: left 6, down 4 is wrong (opposite directions).
• Option 2: left 4, down 6 is wrong (opposite directions).
• Option 3: right 4, up 6: x - movement is wrong (should be 6), y - movement is wrong (should be 4).
• Option 4: right 6 units, up 4 units: matches the movement from \((0,0)\) to \(E\)'s coordinates.

Answer:

D. right 6 units, up 4 units (assuming the last option is D, if options are labeled as A, B, C, D with the last one being "right 6 units, up 4 units")
